Description

@tomnicholas and I noted @martindurant's mention in https://github.com/fsspec/kerchunk/pull/17#issuecomment-789205972 of the possibility of eventually representing the references spec as JSON Schema. We do not see further mention of JSON Schema in the docs or in any issues/prs and are curious what the current status of this is.

Edit: For context, we imagine a machine-readable spec may be useful in many contexts including validation and possibly further development of JS-based frontend clients for kerchunk.
